Distribution

Range Description

This species is known only from the west slope of Cerro Pozo de Agua, in the Sierra de Caral, Izabal, Guatemala, at 1,150m asl. This location is geographically separated from other high-elevation areas, and it is considered very plausible that Cryptotriton wakei is a restricted range endemic within this area (Sean Rovito pers. comm. 2008).
